Definitions

  • the invention which relates to light vehicles of the mini-sweeper type relates more precisely to the chassis of said vehicle, arranged by the assembly of modules and arches.
  • the heavy vehicles used are in fact trucks, fitted out accordingly, whose chassis is made up of side members and cross members resting on the wheel sets and receiving the bucket and the various mechanisms.
  • Lighter sweepers such as that described in FR-A-2 555 555 are also constructed using a conventional chassis, on which the motor, the bodywork and the equipment are suspended or suspended.
  • a light device that is to say having a wheelbase and a weight as reduced as possible
  • a main self-supporting box is delicate to manufacture and does not favor the accessibility and interchangeability of the various elements.
  • a main object of the present invention consists of a method of assembling modules applicable to the formation of the skeleton or chassis of a light vehicle of the type of a mini-sweeper whose different modules are interconnected, and comprising a motor, tanks, a suction turbine and an air separator, as well as various equipment, process which consists in juxtaposing modules each having their own function which are made up of the elements or equipment of the vehicle, each module forming a linked link or serving as a support for at least two neighboring modules.
  • the frame forming the base of the vehicle obtained by said process consists of a hydraulic tank forming an intermediate module fixed to a front box bearing on the steering wheels and to a cradle at the ends of which are rear wheels mounted.
  • the front casing is produced by assembling folded sheets delimiting a compartment closed at least on its front face by a removable grille, and the hydraulic tank has a lateral extension in the direction of the rear which increases the capacity while the other side extends backwards a simple reinforced vertical plate.
  • the motor which rests on the cradle constitutes an intermediate module between said cradle and a module constituted by the air separator and its support.
  • Said support has the form of a V-shaped bracket which also serves as a support for the turbine itself also fixed to the hydraulic tank.
  • a steering column is mounted on the front box and serves as a support for a water tank occupying an inclined position on the side of the vehicle, a cabin roll bar resting on the front box and on another roll bar whose feet take support respectively on the water tank and on the cradle.
  • FIG. 1 shows a certain number of specific elements, the assembly of which makes it possible to obtain the light vehicle represented in FIG. 2.
  • a front box 1 presenting itself substantially as a horizontal parallelepiped box which extends over the entire width of the vehicle, at the front, just above and resting on the steered wheels 13.
  • the box is by example produced by assembling folded sheets delimiting an interior compartment closed at least on its front face by a removable grille.
  • This box 1 is used in particular for housing the steering mechanisms for steering the front wheels 13 and for the electrical connection boxes.
  • the rear of the box 1 is directly assembled to a hydraulic tank 2 intended to contain the reserve oil for supplying the hydraulic circuits and motors.
  • the front face of the tank corresponds in size to the rear face of the box.
  • the tank is asymmetrical because a lateral extension 14, towards the rear increases the capacity.
  • On the other side on the other hand, extends towards the rear a simple reinforced vertical plate 15.
  • the assembly which constitutes the reservoir and said plate consequently has an opening oriented towards the rear which serves as a housing for a cradle. 3 intended to support the vehicle engine 4.
  • the cradle is a simple cross member framed by support legs (16,17). On one side two support legs 16 are fixed to support flanges 18 provided at the ends of the reservoir 14 and of the plate 15.
  • the motor 4 intended to produce the energy and drive the hydraulic pump therefore rests on the legs d '' support 16 and 17 and is roughly centered on the cross member at the ends of which the rear wheels 19 of the vehicle are fixed.
  • the motor 4 constitutes an intermediate module between the cradle and a module consisting of an air separator 7 and its support 5.
  • the support 5 is a V-shaped bracket whose arms (20,21) bear on the cradle and engine.
  • an arm 20 of the bracket serves as a fulcrum for a turbine 6 which is also fixed, from the front, to the tank 2.
  • bracket 5 which serves as a support for the air separator 7 also called a cyclone, having the function of separating and collecting the waste in a plastic bag.
  • a steering column 8 is mounted, by means of a shoe 22 provided at its base, on the front box 1.
  • the column develops upwards until a steering pump 23 terminated by a flywheel 24 and carries also a command and control console 25.
  • This column also serves as a support for a water tank 9 of substantially trapezoidal shape which occupies an inclined position on the side of the vehicle. Said tank rests at its base on the box 1 and is fixed to the shoe of the steering column. Its upper end is made integral with a hoop 11 by means of one of its vertical feet 26, the other foot 27 finding its support on the box 2. The hoop 11, at its upper part, returns towards rear to support cyclone 7.
  • the cabin roll bar 12 serves as a support for a front windscreen 28 and a cabin roof 29. It rests by a lower angle 30 on the front box 1 and by an upper angle 31 on the arch 11. Finally, a fuel tank 10 is attached to the rear, on the cradle 3 and the bracket 5.
  • the arches 11, 12 constitute elements complementary to the modules described above, ensuring the reinforcement of the upper part of the vehicle.
  • each of the modules thus described which has its own very specific function also constitutes a link contributing to the assembly of the assembly, each module being linked, or serving as a support for at least two neighboring modules as shown by the connections in dotted lines in Figure 1.
  • the tank 2 serves as an intermediate module between the front box 1 and the cradle 3.
  • the support legs 16 of the cradle being securely fixed to the soles 18 of the tank, which tank itself being connected by a few connection points to the front box ; these three assembled modules constitute in a way the rigid floor or the basic frame of the vehicle. On these three modules rest the other equipment or components of the mini-sweeper which, too, are each connected to other modules or other arches.
  • the motor 4 forming a spacer, housed in the cradle 3 serves as a support for the module consisting of the air separator 7 and its support bracket 5.
  • the turbine 6, whose proper function is the suction and transport of waste to the cyclone 7, provides the connection between the reservoir 4 and the bracket 5, and thus contributes to stiffening the rear part of the vehicle. This role is not negligible because we have seen that the bracket 5 formed the support for the air separator module 7
  • the arches 11 and 12 forming, in a way, the skeleton of the superstructures of the vehicle, are nested together and bear on the three lower modules which constitute the box 1, the tank 2 and the cradle 3. They also hold in place the steering column 8 and the water tank 9.
  • each element is easily accessible or removable.
